In the Whitechapel unit you and your class meet real people living in the East End of London in the late 19th Century – the use of the personal story is a powerful tool which helps bring history to life.
The tragic life of Polly Nicholls is used to introduce the topic.
You will hear from New York Police Chief Thomas Brynes, who described the Met as ‘stupid’. Was he correct?
You will evaluate two Met Police Commanders careers: Charles Warren and Sir Edmund Henderson and decide who did the best job at the top.
Using a particular place as the focus of a lesson is also motivating to students as it makes history feel real. This is what the Whitechapel unit should be all about.
Your students will visit the East End of London via engaging source material to establish how living conditions in the 1880s may have helped the infamous Jack the Ripper to have committed murder.
Most of the enquiries conclude with a worthwhile and significant outcome. This end product pulls the learning together and allows students to join up their thinking.
